In my experience using linux vms mainly for database workloads Parallels is nearly 10x faster than both UTM using Qemu and even Apple Virtualization (just tested it this morning using Ventura and the latest UTM 4.0 version with Ventura updates).

Interesting, I didn't know you could even get better performance than properly-configured QEMU. Are you sure you had GPU passthrough enabled?

I'm not sure but all of my vms are headless so I don't think that would really have any benefit..?
